There's little fixes I will check in, but I need some advice on
this patch below.
It works around changes to genconfig that went in on 2006-06-10
by slang:
http://www.pvfs.org/fisheye/browse/PVFS/src/apps/admin/pvfs2-
genconfig?r1=1.54&r2=1.55
We would like to preserve the same handle ranges, and specify
on the genconfig command line:
--first-handle=4 \
--last-handle=4294967298 \
--root-handle=1048576 \
but the $count in the code as it was, was just data servers. The
handle range needs to include metadata servers too. Tell me if this
should be handled better than how I hacked around the issue.
Your change looks fine. You probably could just pass ($meta_count +
$io_count) to emIt_filesystem, but this is perl, so cleanliness is
hardly something to argue over. :-)
Turns out it won't matter this time as we have to rebuild the
data storage anyway due to the "dir_ent" -> "de" change. There was
no warning on server startup about that, though.
Did you run the migration tool? If not, then the server should have
complained about storage version mismatch. If you did run the
migration tool, all your 'dir_ent' keyvals should now be 'de'.
